This fine miniature bracket clock by William Johnson is of a very fine quality with great attention to detail. The substantial movement is beautifully finished and has crisply turned pillars.

The well proportioned mahogany case with carved decoration is surmounted with a handle in the form of two sea serpents, this again has its original gilding.
William Johnson is recorded 1825-40, this clock was made circa 1830.

Height 10.5” (to the top of the handle).

Price Band £10,001 - £15,000
